Hi, I have to analyse a data set of fish length and convert it to the weight of the fish using this equation:

log WEIGHT (g) = log a + b log LENGTH (mm)

Can anyone explain to me how to do this? For example, a 200mm princess parrot fish with a log a valu of -4.1836 and a b value of 2.7086, what is it's weight?

Can you do this using excel?

Much appreciated xx
